I remember Tommie with much affection. We worked together for

Humble Oil during World War II before Reggie came home from the war. I left Humble when I married in 1948 and at the time I remember she was expecting Regina. Much love to her large family. I wish I had been around to know the family

but we moved away in 1950 to North

Carolina and returned briefly over

the years.
